[RC] one butt, two horses and a full time job. - Mellifluous

Hey all!
 
I have gotten the impression that some of you keep two horses conditioned and endurance ready.  I was wondering if you guys would have any tips for me on how to accomplish this feat.  I am finding that it is rather difficult, especially with my current equine population.  I have the coming 5 year old that is in excellent condition and maintains it well but needs to be ridden regularly because he is greenbroke.  Then I have the coming 6 year old that is well broke but has pasture potato tendencies and needs lots of work to get in condition, but is easy to maintain once there.  The problem is, I have let her get out of condition while concentrating my greenbroke horse.
 
I work full time but thankfully don't have kids so at least that gives me a little more free time after work.  I try to ride at least 3-4 days a week after work, sometimes that happens and sometimes it does not.  I have a friend that will be riding one of my horses with me at rides, but she can't help condition much.
 
There has got to be a good way to balance all of this!
 
cloning?  would that be a solution?
